trouble weighs a ton

what's wrong

dear brother?

have you lost your faith?

don't you remember a better place?

needles and things done you in

like the setting sun

oh

dear brother

trouble weighs a ton

what's wrong

dear sister?

did your world fall down?

men misuse you and push you around

same story dear

year after year

pathetic men run

oh

dear sister

trouble weighs a ton

trouble in the air

trouble all i see

does anybody care?

trouble killing me

oh

it's killing me

what's wrong

dear mother?

has your child disobeyed?

left you hurt in so many ways

what once was sweet is sorrow and grief

that cannot be undone

oh

dear mother

trouble weighs a ton

oh

dear mother

trouble weighs a ton
